Stephen Collins has been on the news all week after he was reportedly heard on a recording obtained by TMZ confessing to child molestation and exposing himself. As images and reports about Collins flooded the news on TV and the Internet on Tuesday Oct. 7, things took a bizarre turn as on that night, former "Baywatch" star Donna D'Errico tweeted that the "7th Heaven" actor had shot himself to death in his Los Angeles home.

"That guy from 7th Heaven lives around the corner from me & just shot himself a few minutes ago," wrote D'Errico. She later deleted the tweet, but it had already been retweeted several times.
